transltn: ‘kiev forces (walked into comatose) kursk (on the 6th) august. the russian military is currently (working out how best to) counter-attack. (after 3 whole months) over half the ukrainian occupied settlements still remain under ukrainian control.’
spokesman peskov reportedly said that “setting up an invasion of one’s own country seemed like a good idea at the time..”. ptn declined to comment but mumbled something about “sweeping under carpet” and “n.korean death stooges”.
you have to admire the courage of ukrainian troops that galantely give their lives for no strategic purpose whatsoever. and while they die in mass, they embarass putin. i think only one of these two things may lead to winning a war. but at least zelensky is not embarrassed to admit its plan was a failure (once again).
‘but at least zelensky is not embarrassed to admit its plan was a failure’
but wait, i have been assured time and again this seemingly reckless piece of negligence by r.f. was in fact a cunning trap/cauldron carefully baited with r.f citizens, farms, villages, railways and a npp??
it couldn’t just have been a fortuitous but effective ukr-nato advance against dozy r.f. defences? please say it ain’t so!!
advance for what ? apart from creating a mountain of fresh ukrainian corpses and destroyed equipement, this ‘effective advance’ has accomplished nothing. because there is nothing of value there. even the western media understand that. you are dancing on the graves of tens of thousands of ukrainian that died for nothing. happy you.
z benefitted in terms of (1) prestige (2) $billions now flowing from the west and (3) he was written off last july.
z/west has already sacrificed 000s slavs from day 1, “fight to the last ukrn” became a cliché in 2022. another mountain of corpses is insignificant against ukr’s 3 month presence in r.f.
r.f. should have taken kiev (and odessa?) in 2022. remember all donbass and zaporozhye became ‘legally’ r.f. in 09/2022, so ukr are occupiers their too.
ok. you’re at a loss. simpleton. prestige for zelensky ? we are not living the same reality. money ? but money is never the problem in a war. troops and equipement, on the other hand, are. what good is money if there is nothing to buy (like artillery shells that make 80% of the casualties in this war) ? you are spouting the incoherent propaganda of the west. if you expect to change people’s mind, it’s because you are so ignorant that you cannot understand why all you say is meaningless.
i replied to ‘zelensky is not embarrassed’, it being a matter of indifference/distrust. rus has bought the west’s propaganda, not me, and acts accordingly (inc giving isr free reign in syr).
political hubris and propaganda can’t hide avoidable political and military errors that have perhaps damaged russia’s myth of territorial invulnerability.
so ‘confront it, resolve it, push back harder’; just as ussr dealt with all ww2 setbacks.
where did you hear about this myth of russian territorial invulnerability? it sounds an awful lot like more of the five eyes “failed three-day invasion” strawman. even if your made-up myth were an actual perception, do you think that the russians became less enthused about smashing the ukrainians after the ukrainian puppet began running amok on russian territory? derp ’til you die!
insignificant for whom? it’s >1000km of border, and the ukrainians violated about 50km of it, and pentrated perhaps 50km. that’s insignificant. how’s the ukrainian occupation of donbas going? just about wrapped up the ol’ ato? derp or be derped!
r.f is currently still occupied by ukr after 32 months s. m. o. r.f’s own original borders were penetrated 3 mnths back, and it has proved incapable of quickly regaining its own sovereign territory without foreign help or holding onto new land and cities like k-son.
deal with it, the innocent civilians have to.
lord thundering you’re such a retard…derping like ukraine isn’t the nato supplied, nato trained, us/zionist proxy that it is…you obviously fell out of a coconut tree on this debat thread…
finlayson is so deep in his own propaganda and so active that he is nothing more than a troll on the payroll of some western power. the claims are completely absurd and blind to the truth. even for such truths as have been granted in the west.
you threw a lot of talking points in there. that’s some great troll mileage. 32 months ago is september, 2021. do you pay any attention to what you peck out on that keyboard?
to be honest, they probably thought ukraine wouldn’t be that stupid. just think, the plan was to draw russian troops away from donbas, isn’t that laughable. now they draw their own troops from donbas and get slaughtered on another front
so someone (belousov?) took a gamble with r.f’s security (economics/inexperience?), and lost?
according to all reports the signs were there, with massing of ukr troops on the border. were these just dismissed?
at that stage ukraine needed anything that could be spun as a ‘win’ (whether it was or not); so why weren’t r.f. forces alert to that shift in ‘risk’ perception within ukr decision making?
besides, losses of men were never important to z and co.
clearly any russian gamble has paid off. the ukrainian puppet forces were diverted to kursk to achieve no end whatsoever beyond a propaganda stroke. how the ukrainians spun the absurd incursion into a tiny sliver of russian territory is irrelevant in the scheme of their total failiure to regain donbas. thanks for always derping.
please, for the love of god, stop watching cnn and treating it like gospel…
cnn and nyt both insist ukraine only loses 50 afu a day. kia, wia, mia, awol, deserters and more.
nyt even has the gall to put it in print. might as well throw that constitution of theirs in the garbage and adopt 1984 in its stead.
transparent as pal. try harder the readershits here aren’t in grade 3.
i see russian actions in kursk strategic. they bind ukrainian forces in very difficult positions. russia is making second major operation right now during kursk attack. it would be counter productive now to have big losses and let ukraine shift all ukrainian troops from kursk to donetsk defence. better to bleed ukrainian forces in kursk, use north korean forces as cannon fodder and assault in donetsk. while north koreans fight in russian ground, no-one can say anything.
so in three months the russians have already rolled back 50% of the ukrainian gains, despite being “comatose”? what does that say about the ukrainian capacity to hold territory? and this is occurring while the ukrainians moonwalk out of donbas. total catastrophic ukrainian failure by any reasonable measure. dare to derp!
‘what does that say about the ukrainian capacity to hold territory?’
it clearly says a good deal more than russia’s inability to protect its own territory or people in the first place. ukr might even last longer in kursk than the mighty r.f. did in ‘their own city’ kherson.
face it, russia got thumped through incompetence, period; try and explain otherwise to the families of the dead russians. s’truth.
i met a guy like you once while walking my dog. while i was distracted, he ran up to a fellow sitting on a bench and proceeded to pee on his leg. i apologized to him profusely and he just said, ‘no bother, i just thought it was raining.’
no, that wasn’t me on the bench, it was pres-ptn.
no, that was definitely you. i could tell by the snaps barely holding your trenchcoat open. just admit you’re a weirdo and move on. it’s a badge of honor in the west these days anyway.
the russians are fighting a ukrainian puppet that was the third largest army in europe at the start of the smo, trained, supplied, armed, advised and supported with intel by the most powerful empire the world has ever seen. and that puppet has forfeited an area larger than most countires on earth, with untold losses in personnel and materiel. last i checked the ukrrainians were nowhere near the city of kursk.
give it a rest trollope.
go away and drip clyde.
keep up the derping!
stop laying your son and calling it fine, futt-bucker. there are laws against that, well maybe not in western countries but definitely elsewhere.
by now those idiots in eurotardistan should have figured it out that their little ukraine adventure is dead on arrival.
better side with the houthis, they at least know how to make things work!
guillable clowns.
yes, sure, whatever. i’ll put this with ‘putin has already lost’. lol. lots of baghdad bob impersonators nowadays.
when the north korean elite expeditionary forces are finally unleashed upon exhausted ukrainian nazies and “mercenaries” from nato countries in kursk, there will be such frenzied barbarity inflicted on those who oppose and resist, the captured and the wounded, that whenever ukrainians and mercs ever see the koreans approaching again, they will turn the other way, throw their weapons away and run as fast as they can.
are you done?
justrying2keepyouonyourtoes.
last vid i saw more then week ago…sf-try to put fresh stuff rather then archive old vids.
great video, haven’t seen it yet. not a sin to repeat it once more.
i mean come on you dumbfucks! what did you expect when you ventured into kursk? welcome bands and champagne? ukronazis are the dumbest mofos around.
welcome bands and champagne only greeted russian troops in the donbass. saboteurs, spotters and spies greeted the ukronazis in kursk.
uh, but, but…. they told me that the donbas locals would greet us like conquering liberators, just like we greeted the nazi troops in the 40’s.
you mean our people lied? why, just to get me to not run away as soon as i could? that wasn’t nice. anyhoo, i still ran away, and am posting this from nizhny tagil.
btw first video is russian paratroopers took control of the dam in the kursk regioin – well documented on ria novosti today.
tak veru, len ich tie fašistické beštie pomaličky likvidujte. niet sa kam ponáhľať, tých fašistických svíň je stále príliš veľa. a ako sa hovorí práca chvatná malo platná. teraz si ozaj treba dať dobre záležať, aby ste dostali každú fašistickú sviňu ktorá prekročila ruskú hranicu. smrť fašistickým okupantom!!! mor ho!!! svetu mier!!!
i scared only go to pedophilia amerikunt bar
can only imagine what the price is on the heads of them us army “kernals” trapped in kursk must be… could make a russian squad very rich if they bag any of those ‘trophies’ alive…
